Quel plaisir d’avoir de vos nouvelles, et quelles nouvelles !!! Une exposition et une exposition qui plus est dont l’intitulé, comme le lieu, laissent présager d’un climat joyeusement décalé, ouvert et salutairement stimulant. Je suis absolument ravie pour Vous … bien que les images nous manquent cruellement. Mais nous aurons, je n’en doute pas, d’autres occasions de les découvrir.
Avec tous mes vœux les plus chaleureux de succès et de plaisir pour ce moment important, cette occasion de partager avec d’autres ce travail de création.
En vous souhaitant le meilleur et surtout de continuer longtemps à prendre le temps de jeter sur les choses et sur le monde un regard salutairement impertinent.
Chaleureusement de nous tous,
